Goldstein & Orr occupies a position in Texas criminal defense that is, by any objective measure, singular. Founded by Gerald H. Goldstein — one of the most respected constitutional criminal defense attorneys in the country — and built over decades into one of the region's most accomplished firms, it is the practice that other defense attorneys call when a case exceeds their capacity and the stakes are too high for anything less than the best available representation. Cynthia E. Hujar Orr, who has served as past president of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and is a recognized leader in criminal justice nationally, brings to the firm both courtroom depth and an intellectual engagement with the law that has shaped her career into something beyond any single case. The firm handles the full range of criminal defense matters — federal crimes, white collar cases, drug offenses, violent charges, asset forfeiture, sex offenses, organized criminal activity, and criminal appeals — across state and federal courts. The breadth of practice is not a menu; it reflects decades of developed expertise in cases where the consequences are most severe and where the quality of defense counsel is most consequential. For individuals and organizations facing serious criminal exposure in South and Central Texas, Goldstein & Orr remains the destination firm.
